Ingredients

Instructions

  • For this recipe, you will need to use a high-speed blender with a tamper attachment, or a food processor. A regular blender may have difficulty blending the ice and keeping it from getting stuck in the blade. Add the ice, almond milk, pea protein powder, peanut butter powder, and sweetener to your blender or food processor. Start at a low speed, and slowly increase to medium speed, using the tamper attachment to help blend the ice if you're using a high-speed blender. Blend for about 1 minute, or until ice is completely incorporated.
  • Stop the blender, remove the top, and add the guar gum. Place the top back on, and blend for another 30 seconds or until the mixture fluffs and increases in size.
  • Scoop the fluff out of the blender. Add to a bowl. Top with a drizzle of natural peanut butter, and a few chocolate chips. Enjoy immediately!

Notes

Tips for the Best Protein Fluff Consistency:

  • Use a high-speed blender such as a Vitamix, Blendtec, or Ninja. You need a powerful blender to get all the ice to blend. If you use a regular blender you run the risk of having chunks of ice that don't incorporate.
  • If you don't have a high-speed blender, than use a food processor. You need one that is 6-9 cups because this recipe doubles in size.
  • Keep this recipe vegan by using a pea protein powder. However, if you're not vegan than feel free to use the protein powder of your choice.
  • Don't use plain pea protein powder. It will make this fluff have a weird taste. I used vanilla flavored, but you can also use chocolate or another type of flavor if you prefer.
  • Don't add too much guar gum. Measure your guar gum out precisely. Too much will turn your fluff into a slimy mess. Not enough will result in the recipe not achieving that fluffy texture.
  • Only use a ½ cup of almond milk. Adding more than that will give you a soupy texture.

Topping Suggestions:

  • Frozen Fruit
  • Nut Butter
  • Chopped Nuts
  • Mini or Regular Vegan Chocolate Chips
  • Vegan Marshmallows
  • Chia Seeds
  • Vegan Sprinkles

Storage:

  • Enjoy immediately. 
  • If you must store, cover the bowl, and place it in the freezer for 1-2 days. When ready to eat again, place it on your countertop to defrost for 5-10 minutes.
